Tell you what. If you go to Corbin.com you can get a picture of a cb1100 with the seat and backrest installed and you can even rotate the picture to see the bike from all different angles! Admittedly, the bike looks better without the backrest which is why I ordinarily keep mine off, but it installs in less than two minutes. My wife will not ride without it as the years have not been as kind to her joints etc as to mine.

That little glove box (Corbin's term) for the backrest is kinda cool.

Picture please after you installed the icons.

My wife didn't complain about the ride on my Super Hawk 305 40 years ago either! OK, wise guy stuff aside, I bought a Corbin Gunfighter-Lady seat for my CB1100 just to please my wife with a backrest. It's an expensive way to go but it was the only way she'd ride any distance at all with me. I got Ikon shocks for partly the same reason, though I enjoy the improved handling and she enjoys the gentler ride.
Would yo have a picture of the Corbin' seat with backrest?
